Huge sigh...........this is going so much faster than I anticipated. I had left messages for my middle bro and my step-mom that I was going to be in a scout meeting tonight. Mid meeting, I see my bro is calling...I step outside....things are worse. My father is going to do this quickly, it appears....a blessing and a curse.
Time to mobilize. I must get to my daddy. Kids, you are likely coming with me. Gotta get there on Thursday....that's what we agree.
Back into the meeting. My girlfriend leans over and asks me if I'm ok....no...I'm not ok. Go home, she says. She calls a couple hours later...hey, we're here. 26 families ready to help with whatever you need. Just let me know. Man, I'm lucky.
I sit down wieth the older boys and begin to tell them what to expect. They need to know. One look at Zach's face and I truly understand t is more than he can bear. Time to being looking for someone t care for them.
I am absolutely zonked. I'm so friggin tired. Please forgive the disjointed tone of this blog...but I'm in a fog. My good friend told me I'd feel this way for awhile. So allow it and will ultimately get better.
Sleep with angels....
